JOE DUPLANTIER From GOJIRA Red Carpet Interview | 2022 GRAMMYs 

i love how he represented the metal community in such a intelligent way.

Rare footage of joe not being the most socially awkard person in the room

The fact that Joe had to sell the track, the album, and God forbid me when I say this, his band and the metal community, to voice out that our planet is in grave danger and yet, the Academy doesn't recognize this?! Man, Gojira is way too good for this planet. Because they're from another planet entirely! Period.

I love that. He doesn't care too much about the Grammys, he's just glad he can use the platform for people to hear his message.

0:52 "who are you excited to see tonight? its such a big fun concert" performers were Brothers Osborne, BTS, Brandi Carlile, Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X with Jack Harlow, and Olivia Rodrigo..... joe basically politely says im not excited to see any of the performers...

Gojira is super under-appreciated musically and lyrically. Never going to forget the day i discovered them.

Interviewer: “Who are you excited to see?” Joe: …Well

Proud of Joe & the band. I drove bus for Gojira's 1st U.S. tour w/ Amon Amarth & Children of Bodom - 2006. Polite & studious off stage, FIERCE on stage. Great guys!

Not just a great band. Great humans. Hope they are around for a very long time!

He came into grammy ceremony with casual shirt, that's already more metal than the rest of the nods.

the blonde lady is in awe that a musician, let alone a metal musician is so well spoken, thoughtful and polite haha.

This man has more class and good will than 95% of the celebrities attending the event. The 300 grand he was able to raise no doubt pale in comparison to the spending involved in putting this lil soiree on so American celebrities can pat each other on the back. This is not a Hollywood millionaire doing their 5th Vanity Fair feature. This is a French dude with a guitar trying to save the damn Amazon forest. This should be more important for us, collectively, as a society, than Olivia Rodrigo's teenage heartbreak.

We need more people like Joe Duplantier

They're already one of my favourite bands, but this interview makes me appreciate Gojira even more. What a humble guy.

POP Artists : "..Bla bla bla ..great time ..having fun ...famous people ..after party ..Dance to the Rhythm .. Do i look Good ?? yay yay " Joe Duplantier : "..need to make conscience to make a better world though our music "

Glad they just let Joe talk... some interviewers would constantly be interrupting

0:50 instead of saying IDGF about this artist he handled it well.

Humbleness in this guy is already a winner. I feel glad that I discovered their music.🤘

I’m so glad they weren’t short with him and continued to let him speak, whilst asking further questions.

Joe “Yellow Flower” Duplantier 😍

Joe is so wholesome and nice

God bless this man and his band.

Joe is the most humble human!! So nice and down to Earth and uses fame to help others and our planet! Wish more people were like Joe!

I haven't seen much of the Grammys, but now I've seen this interview, and I've seen the acceptance speech by Petrucci, and man... I must say they give such a good impression of metal musicians! They are so polite and articulate, and are such gentlemen, much more than many others there who just think they're the center of the universe, and just think of themselves. I'm impressed!

Best red carpet / grammy interview I will ever see.

This guy is a class act. Much respect him and the rest of Gojira.

I had no idea we shared the same nationality, I have been listening to them for 6 months, love their songs and message

This makes me even prouder to be a Gojira fan!

I don't really listen to Gojira, but I can tell Joe is a genuine dude. I'll probably go listen to some more Gojira. Much love from Québec, Canada

Amazing band and Joe is great. Met him by accident before seeing them live the next day. We took a selfie and he was just so nice

It's awesome to see real people doing great things like Gojira is doing. Awecome guys, so humble. I appreciate them more now. Long life to Gojira.

Rock and metal artist wanna send a message even when they come to a ceremony like Grammy awards. That's the difference between them and main pop industry

Planning on seeing them 3 times this year. They're that fucking good.

Those Duplantiers! Gojira's 'The Art of Dying;. The art in their musicianship; the art of giving a meaningful message on the Grammy red carpet. Tres magnifique. 🎶

Gojira are more important than most people will ever realise

Gojira is currently one of the best band and I feel sorry for the ladies of not understanding whats going on in Brazil 😂😂😂

I love the fellas of Gojira. They are just such awesome dudes! And great musicians.

This is so relevant....thank you for everything you do Joe!!!! Much respect and love to you and Gojira!

Grammy nowadays looks like when I see mtv music awards. That's the level.

Great interview. Spread the word!

Gojira is the best. And am so glad I discovered them

Disgraceful that gojira didn't win

Et ben voilà, on y est ! 😊 La reconnaissance absolue de notre metal emblématique français sur le red carpet, un des meilleurs moyens de nous mettre en garde, en toute humilité et simplicité, contre les dangers de la déforestation en Amazonie, merci Joe, God bless you, ainsi que toutes les personnalités du monde metal qui activent à tes côtés !!! 🙏🤘🤘🤘🇨🇵

Who else comes to the Grammys and talk about this? Mad respect to him

Gojira is too good for this world. We don’t deserve them as a whole. 🙏

Classic... Rare and Real artist

Gojira should have won this year. The message in Amazonia is so important. Grammy's are so biased

Joe is using so much hand gestures while talking :) it made me think for a second that he's also answering to the sign language interpreter

awesome lesson for everybody what joe tries to explain

Every single one us needs to learn from Joe and better ourselves and our planet. He is an amazing human! 💖

love he doesn't talk about stupid things like everyone else on this crap and actually uses this as a platform to talk about real stuff

So nice that they have a sign language translator for this. Props to her.

I really admire this man. I saw them perform last night.

Not every metal band gets baptised by an indigenous tribe in the amazon but i am really glad gojira is one of those bands. Rock on yellow flower

Belas falas do Joe sobre a tribo do meu País, parabéns brother! Extremamente Gentil! Sucesso!

Joe is such a nice and gracious guy. I don't care about the grammy's at all. In fact the core of message and information he was passing on juxtaposed by this "red carpet" event couldn't be more in conflict, and in its own way represents exactly what is destroying the Amazon rain forest.

What a pleasant and thoughtful person!

"aham", "hmm", "wow". Profound....

Merci! Said I cant go to the shows in Holland this July, hopefully next time! :)

he deserve win, Gojira ❤️

This was beautiful

Who gives a shit about Grammys. Gojira is an amazingly rich band in term of music and message. Love these guys, world needs more of Gojira

These women have no idea how to interact... Good thing Joe is handling the interview. Should have won. Yay he mentions Deftones!

I dont like that he (and metal bands in general) has to make excuses for their music/metal for the dumb grammys crowd and interviewers to understand/accept them, eg "our music was extreme but we have mellowed down, metal music is more and more accepted", etc.

I love Joe 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 incredible human.

I love how he talks about this amazing experience he had in South America and the interviewer immediately turns it into an instagram moment by saying "that must have been a life changing experience for you." It sounds so hollow and really undermines the whole point of what he's trying to say.

what a nice guy!

The Yellow flower duplantier really a good man.

such a smart,respectful,presentable, kickass amzing person

What a speech 💚

Its amazing how when you hear these guys music its so extreme and angry and you see him speak in an interview and he's just such a calm and chill dude

Best live band I've ever seen

I love this man

What a gentleman!!

My celebrity

Congrats Joe you are one of a kind

What a fkn gentleman! GOJIRA

Thank you Joe!

🔥🔥🔥

Bravo à Joe et vive Gojira !

Yknow the interviewers had allot of respect and time for joe…it must be refreshing to talk to someone at an event such as that with something more to say than your typical industry made star. He dosent have to tow a line as much as more mainstream forms of entertainment so it makes it interesting when he could make his band infamous in the mainstream by saying something outrageous and ‘rock n roll’ yet instead choosing to treat these women with sincerity and conversations of compassion as opposed to the usual self aggrandising topic of conversation to be found at a red carpet event

Well done Joe! A true activist! ✊

Grammys need to do more for Metal music. Gojira had one of the most brilliant albums.

Grande Joe....grandi Gojira....

The contrast is so interesting! Conscious talk in an unconscious event!

Gojira Yes

He's a great guy for sure

The GOAT

“There’s more oxygen in the music”. I know the interviewers had no clue what he was talking about but that sentence perfectly incapsulates how their music has changed.

Joe for president!

Il est bien mon Jo, il parle bien et fortitude cartonne, see ya at Paris bercy in 2023 🤟

YES.

Who are you excited to see performing tonight? Joe was like hmmmm nobody? lol

Oh, i understand the word "Metal" in deaf language, nice one 🤘

From Paraguay, the land of Guarani people, I thank you Gojira.

Joe Duplantier and the entire band are gentlemen and good people. I love their music and I like it very heavy. Their early albums are fantastic but Fortitude is a beautiful album.

Joe and gojira is a great ambassador for metal

Saw them live in Seattle 4.16.22 and their music is amazing. I wish the notion of them being stoner metal didn’t make me stray from their music. There’s so much I missed out on prior to seeing them live with Deftones.

Joe🤘

BRAAAAAAAASILLLLL
